Good grief - take a look at who Abby follows on twitter (her recommendations). They are mostly FOX people. I sure wish she could go back their and be her bland self.
I’m not surprised.

Meh. Chelsea would be interesting but she's so cautious with her words that she seems stilted. She doesn't have a natural ease to be on a panel discussion.
Boring lineup next week. Farrow will be all about Matt Lauer. And like I said earlier, I find birthday episodes tedious.
They should play I Feel Pretty when Sunny walks out Friday

I have a feeling Abby would be more palatable if Meghan wasn't a co-host. I think she's influenced by Meghan's forcefulness on certain topics that Abby might not have a strong opinion about otherwise.
It figures. (I was just writing the above when you posted this.)
I also think if Abby had gone directly to The View from MSNBC, she'd be better.

She and Mike broke up? It's going to be awkward having him as a guest.
She's still with Mike. I mean she's dating after the divorce.

I'm assuming she is not a main character, so she can work the days she is not on The View. A few weeks ago she was off on a thursday.
I want her to leave altogether, honestly

I agree with MM about her Syria rant (never thought I'd type those words), however it was devilishly sly of her to co-opt Joy's birthday celebration, knowing full well how this was going to dominate the internet. She just couldn't let Joy have her big day, could she. Then again, pigs are flying because I agreed with her. Pains me to say.
Whoopi tried co-opting too.

Stupid me, I didn't include the link to the scathing article written by Ben Shapiro about Meghan. And she weirdly says in the new interview that she never forgets and holds a grudge. I guess, not so much.

Opinion
Meghan McCain's Big Bust
By Ben Shapiro
October 15, 2009 5 min read
Rule No. 1 for Being Taken Seriously: Don't post pictures of yourself on the Internet that are not safe for work (NSFW).
Rule No. 2 for Being Taken Seriously: Don't whine and cry when people criticize you for posting NSFW photos.
Meghan McCain doesn't know either one of these rules. But then, Meghan McCain doesn't know much of anything.
McCain is obviously not the brightest bulb in the chandelier. This is a woman who, while appearing on Bill Maher's show, explained that she knew nothing about Ronald Reagan because "I wasn't born yet." (Paul Begala, no intellectual titan himself, quickly responded that though he hadn't been around during the French Revolution, he knew something about it.) She thinks she's being deep when she states, "I am a woman who despises labels and boxes and stereotypes." We in the real world call that a cop-out.
Somehow, The Daily Beast has seen fit to give her a column — apparently in an attempt to test the scientific aphorism that a monkey with a typewriter can produce Shakespeare if given enough time. She has used that column to talk about how hip she is: She is pro-gay marriage, she has a tattoo, and she loves punk rock.
She has made a career by using her father's name to heighten her profile. She has also used her fat to heighten her profile: She famously started a flame-war with talk show host Laura Ingraham when Ingraham called her a "plus-sized model." McCain, who somehow parlayed that comment into a slot on "The View," responded by telling Ingraham to "kiss my fat ass."
In short, she's the Republican Roseanne, with slightly less charm.
So why should anyone care about Meghan McCain?
Because Meghan McCain is apparently attempting to foist her way into the public consciousness by using her two biggest assets — neither of which is her brain.
McCain posts regularly on Twitter, where she lets readers experience the deep moments of her life. Readers can expect rambling nonsense, generally about weight and celebrities. Pearls of wisdom like this come flowing off of McCain's keyboard: "I know what it feels like my weight is mocked every single time I do anything publicly, Jessica Simpson stay strong. those people r pathetic." Actually, what's pathetic is that McCain's Twitter account has over 60,000 followers.
On Wednesday, Oct. 14, 2009, in yet another attempt to appear cool to her loser followers, McCain posted something historic on her Twitter account: a shot of her barely clad breasts. It's essentially a webcam pic from MySpace. Her caption: "my 'spontaneous' night in is my Andy Warhol biography and takeout .... I'm getting old."
Honestly, I'm not sure what's more shocking: that she thinks it is cutting edge to cite Andy Warhol or that she decided that the entire world needed to see her push-up cleavage.
Naturally, this caused some consternation among her more conservative followers. McCain responded to that consternation by playing the victim: "so I took a fun picture not thinking anything about what I was wearing but apparently anything other than a pantsuit I am a slut, this is why I have been considering deleting my twitter account, what once was fun now just seems like a vessel for harassment."
Then this: "when I am alone in my apartment, I wear tank tops and sweat pants, I had no idea this makes me a ‘slut', I can't even tell you how hurt I am."
Oh, really, now. Meghan McCain may hold a double-digit IQ (barely), but there is no way she could post a photo like this for millions to see without recognizing that there would be some blowback. No one cares what she does when she is "alone in her apartment" — we only care what she does when she places her front on public display.
But should we truly be surprised by this behavior? She is an attention hog, and she is getting the attention she probably lacked at home by blabbing about her butt, her boobs and her gay friends to a slobbering media eager to discredit her father. The truth is, there's nothing to see here, except a woman desperate for the spotlight.

I have a feeling we're gonna have a lot to say about Meghan on Wednesday and Friday.
Oh, and I just noticed that Tuesday may not be fun, with Neil deGrasse Tyson on. He's also on Colbert's show tomorrow night. I think these are his first talk show appearances since the sexual misconduct allegations against him came out last year.
Meg will be fawning over Rand Paul's book

I hope in the sequel, they'd have Fellowes write the first draft and then have it rewritten by better writers.

Abby Huntsman: The New Kid
in The View
I think Abby sometimes should be reminded that she's not on Fox anymore.
